	answer	answer answer text <p>The Disclosure of Tax Avoidance Scheme (DOTAS) regime generally does not expressly require disclosers to tell HMRC whether a scheme involves a trust. HMRC review all disclosures under DOTAS and challenges schemes as appropriate as part of its risk based compliance strategy.</p><p> </p><p>Analysis at the point of disclosure indicates that around a third of the avoidance schemes disclosed under DOTAS rules since 2014 include trusts. However, the use of a trust may not be a material component of the scheme or arrangements being disclosed under DOTAS, the exact use of a trust will in many cases only become clear on further investigation.</p>

It also engaged directly with over 100 organisations. Last summer, we published a summary of these responses and the Budget decision draws on that, considering the range of alternatives that are available.</p><p> </p><p>There is no practical way to apply the tax to just hot drink cups, meaning that a tax would have to be placed on all types of disposable plastic cup, including plastic and plastic-lined cups used for cold drinks. The government has concluded that there is not good evidence that a tax would lead to a significant increase in reuse for these at this time.</p><p> </p><p>Businesses are already taking steps to reduce the impact of disposable cups. The government expects industry to go further and will return to the issue if sufficient progress is not made.</p>
